Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a new energy battery, in particular to a battery box. Background Art

[0002] As environmental protection and sustainable energy development become increasingly important, global attention and demand for new energy sources continue to grow, giving new energy a broad development prospect. With the continuous advancement of battery technology, the continuous improvement of charging infrastructure, and the gradual reduction of costs, new energy batteries will become more popular.

[0003] The existing battery case structure consists of a case body with a negative electrode cover and a positive electrode cover fixed to the opening of the case body. Both the negative electrode cover and the case body are integrally stamped from sheet metal. This forming method subjects the sheet metal to extreme stretching to form the case structure, making it susceptible to deformation and even breakage during the stretching process. This makes battery cases with this structure difficult to manufacture and results in a high defective rate, significantly increasing production costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a battery box, which is simple to process and has a high yield rate, thereby reducing the production cost of the product.

[0005] The above technical objectives of the present utility model are achieved through the following technical solutions: a battery box, comprising: a positive electrode cover; a box body, which is configured as a tube with two open ends; a negative electrode cover; a lower limit ring, which is arranged at one of the open ends of the box body; a lower fixing structure, which is configured to cooperate with the lower limit ring to limit the movement of the negative electrode cover located in the box body along the length direction of the box body; and an upper fixing structure, which is configured to fix the positive electrode cover and the box body.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the tube is cut into a box body, and a lower retaining ring is machined at one of the open ends of the box body. The lower retaining ring is then used to secure the negative electrode cover with a lower fixing structure, and the positive electrode cover is then secured with an upper fixing structure, thus completing the production of the battery box. This processing method does not require extreme stretching of the material, thereby reducing processing difficulty, improving product yield, and lowering production costs.

[0007] It is further configured as follows: the lower fixing structure is a lower fixing ring provided on the box body and located on the side of the negative electrode cover opposite to the lower limiting ring, and the lower fixing ring abuts against the negative electrode cover and is tightly pressed against the lower limiting ring.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the lower fixing ring cooperates with the lower limiting ring to abut against both sides of the negative electrode cover, thereby achieving fixed installation of the negative electrode cover.

[0009] It is further configured as follows: the lower fixing ring is formed by bending the box body and is convex toward one side of the interior of the box body.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the box body is bent and deformed by rolling to form the lower fixing ring to limit the negative electrode cover. This processing method is easy to operate and has low processing costs.

[0011] It is further configured that: the position where the negative electrode cover abuts against the lower fixing ring forms a pressing inclined surface that expands outward and gradually tilts away from the lower fixing ring.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the arrangement of the abutting inclined surface increases the contact surface with the lower fixing ring, thereby improving the stability of the abutting structure.

[0013] It is further configured as follows: the upper fixing structure includes an upper fixing ring that is sleeved on the outer periphery of the box body and connected to the positive electrode cover, and multiple fixing points connecting the upper fixing ring and the box body, and the multiple fixing points are distributed around the outer periphery of the upper fixing ring.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the positive electrode cover is connected to the upper fixing ring and is sleeved on the open end of the box body, and then the two are fixed by the set fixing points, so as to achieve the fixed installation of the positive electrode cover on the box body.

[0015] It is further configured that: the fixing point is formed by a depression of the upper fixing ring and is embedded into the outer peripheral wall of the box body.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the upper fixing ring is deformed by stamping and then embedded into the outer peripheral wall of the box body, thereby achieving fixed installation between the two.

[0017] It is further configured that: a position where the positive electrode cover abuts against the open end of the box body is provided with an embedding groove for the open end of the box body to be embedded.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the embedding groove increases the sealing contact surface, thereby achieving better protection.

[0019] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: the present invention is simple to process and has a high yield rate, thereby reducing the production cost of the product. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The lower retaining ring 4 is formed by rolling the case body 2.

[0026] The lower fixing structure is a lower fixing ring 5, located on the side of the negative electrode cap 3 facing away from the lower retaining ring 4. The lower fixing ring 5 abuts the negative electrode cap 3 and is tightly pressed against the lower retaining ring 4. The lower fixing ring 5 is integrally formed with the case body 2 and is stamped from the case body 2, protruding toward the interior of the case body 2. The negative electrode cap 3 abuts the lower fixing ring 5, forming a chamfered surface 6 that expands outward and gradually slopes away from the lower fixing ring 5.

[0027] The upper fixing structure includes an upper fixing ring 7 that fits over the outer periphery of the case body 2 and is integrally connected to the positive electrode cap 1. It also includes multiple fixing points 8 connecting the upper fixing ring 7 to the case body 2. These fixing points 8 are distributed around the outer periphery of the upper fixing ring 7. The fixing points 8 are formed by stamping the upper fixing ring 7 and are embedded into the outer wall of the case body 2. The positive electrode cap 1 is bent at the location where it abuts the open end of the case body 2 to form a groove 9 into which the open end of the case body 2 fits. Both the groove 9 and the upper fixing ring 7 are stamped from the positive electrode cap 1. All of the above features are made of metal.
